Categories     Side     Bell Pepper     Zucchini     Summer     Couscous     Gourmet     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound zucchini (about 3 medium)
1 small red bell pepper
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 small garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 cup chicken broth
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup couscous

Steps:

  • Prepare grill.
  • Trim zucchini and cut each lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Quarter bell pepper lengthwise, discarding seeds, stem, and ribs. Brush zucchini with oil and grill with bell pepper on a lightly oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until zucchini is just tender and pepper is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, vegetables may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Cut zucchini into 1-inch-wide pieces and cut bell pepper into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
  • Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt. In a dry 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan toast cumin seeds over moderately low heat, swirling pan occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add broth and water and bring to a boil. Add couscous and immediately cover pan. Remove pan from heat and let couscous stand 5 minutes. With a fork fluff couscous and in a bowl toss with vegetables, garlic paste, and salt to taste.

GRILLED PEPPERS AND ZUCCHINI



Grilled Peppers and Zucchini image

This versatile side dish is so simple and quick that I had to share it. Grilling the colorful veggies in a foil packet means one less dish to wash, but I sometimes stir-friy the mixture on the stovetop. -Karen Anderson, Fair Oaks, California

Grilled Zucchini, Onions, and Red Peppers image

This is a great recipe to use up all those vegetables that are coming in from the garden about now. Plus, I love to grill, and this just makes it easier to make a complete meal on the grill. These are also good in a pita with garlic mayo or tzatziki sauce! **Prep time does not include the time to get the grill ready for grilling!

Time 23m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 zucchini
2 red bell peppers
1 large vidalia onion (sweet onion)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/8 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/8 cup fresh oregano, chopped
1 1/4 tablespoons Cavenders All Purpose Greek Seasoning

Steps:

  • Trim the ends off the zucchini. Cut them in half lengthwise and then cut them into quarters.
  • Trim, core, and stem the red bell peppers. Cut them into four equal parts from top down.
  • Peel the onion and lay it on its side. Cut it inot 1/4 to 1/2 inch circles, being careful to keep the concentric layers in place.

  • Cook on both sides for 2 to 3 minutes (or until they are marked) over a medium hot grill. Brush the vegetables with any remaining oil/vinegar mix when you turn them.
  • Serve hot or cold!

Grilled Lemon-Pepper Zucchini image

I like to serve this easy summer-vegetable dish with grilled chicken and rice. I suppose you could switch the type of seasonings you use if you'd like a different flavor, or even change up the vegetables to suit your liking.
